I would like to preserve as much history as possible. Suppose I have a big project BASE which I want to split into BCHILD and BLIB, each containing significant portion of files from B, say 50% each. I would create a new project CFG with config files. Should I tag BCHILD and BLIB of BASE, and remove unneeded files in each? Or should I tag BCHILD of BASE, since it is the real child of BASE, and create a separate BLIB project with same .arch-id files, as they used to be in BASE? What is the benefit of one approch over the other? Thanks, Milan. _______________________________________________ Gnu-arch-users mailing list Gnu-arch-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-arch-users GNU arch home page: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch/
